Exterior and Interior Details of 2016 Chevrolet Volt
It is a four-door vehicle with a neat look and zero protrusion. The sheet metal has a well-sculpted look, which increases its aesthetics manifold. As per Chevrolet, Volt’s exterior design drew its inspiration from athletes with a toned body. The headlamps are LED, which ensure precise crystal clear illumination. Moreover, they look far better than halogen lights. Aluminum is used for manufacturing the hatch panel and the hood. There is nothing extra hip about the exterior designing for which Volt is well known. The headlamps do extend in length on the sides but it is quiet accepted as a design feature in cars. The tail lamps are aero optimized, which help the vehicle move with dexterity while the extra use of shiny metal on the grille, preserves some of Volt’s funky look. All the versions get 17-inch wheels.
